Virgil van Dijk won the Fans’ Player of the Season and the Players’ Player of the Season trophies at Southampton’s awards night.

The 24-year-old Dutch central defender, who moved to St Mary’s from Celtic in a Â£13million deal last summer, took to the Premier League immediately and has gone on to become a key man in Saints’ boss Ronald Koeman’s plans.
